The implementation of Outcome-Based Education (OBE) is under the ordinance of the Ministry of Higher Education Malaysia and the Board of Engineers Malaysia (BEM). It is an international approach to teaching and learning that centers on what graduates are expected to achieve upon graduation. The curriculum is designed with specific Learning Outcomes (LOs) to prepare the graduates with the Programme Outcomes (POs). The POs are structured to equip graduates with the necessary skills and knowledge to successfully attain the Programme Educational Objectives (PEOs) within 3 to 5 years after graduation. The PEOs are as follows:<\/strong><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

Programme Outcomes (PO) are statements that describe what students are expected to know and be able to perform or attain by the time of graduation. These relate to the skills, knowledge, and behaviour that students acquire through the programme. Students of an engineering programme are expected to attain the following PO:<\/strong><\/p>

  1. Engineering Knowledge<\/strong> – Apply knowledge of mathematics, natural science, computing and engineering fundamentals, and an engineering specialization as specified in WK1 to WK4 respectively to develop solutions to complex engineering problems.<\/li>
  2. Problem Analysis<\/strong> – Identify, formulate, research literature and analyze complex engineering problems reaching substantiated conclusions using first principles of mathematics, natural sciences and engineering sciences with holistic considerations for sustainable development (WK1 to WK4).<\/li>
  3. Design\/Development of Solutions<\/strong> – Design creative solutions for complex engineering problems and design systems, components or processes to meet identified needs with appropriate consideration for public health and safety, whole-life cost, net zero carbon as well as resource, cultural, societal, and environmental considerations as required (WK5).<\/li>
  4. Investigation<\/strong> – Conduct investigation of complex engineering problems using research methods including research-based knowledge, including design of experiments, analysis and interpretation of data, and synthesis of information to provide valid conclusions (WK8).<\/li>
  5. Tool Usage<\/strong> – Create, select and apply, and recognize limitation of appropriate techniques, resources, and modern engineering and IT tools, including prediction and modelling, to complex engineering problems, (WK2 and WK6).<\/li>
  6. The Engineer and the World<\/strong> – Analyze and evaluate sustainable development impacts to: society, the economy, sustainability, health and safety, legal frameworks, and the environment, in solving complex engineering problems (WK1, WK5, and WK7).<\/li>

  9. Communication<\/strong> – Communicate effectively and inclusively on complex engineering activities with the engineering community and with society at large, such as being able to comprehend and write effective reports and design documentation, make effective presentations, taking into account cultural, language, and learning differences.<\/li>
  10. Project Management and Finance<\/strong> – Apply knowledge and understanding of engineering management principles and economic decision-making and apply these to one\u2019s own work, as a member and leader in a team, and to manage projects in multidisciplinary environments.<\/li>
  11. Life Long Learning<\/strong> – Recognise the need for, and have the preparation and ability for i) independent and life-long learning ii) adaptability to new and emerging technologies and iii) critical thinking in the broadest context of technological change (WK8).<\/li><\/ol>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

    The table presents the mapping of Programme Outcomes (POs) in accordance with the EAC Manual 2020 and 2024, demonstrating alignment and transition between the two frameworks. Within the Manufacturing Engineering programme, POs are systematically attained through an Outcome-Based Education (OBE) model using culminating courses, where each course is designed with three to five Course Learning Outcomes (CLOs) aligned to multiple POs. Student performance on these CLOs is aggregated to determine overall PO attainment at the programme level. The culminating courses provide integrative assessment to ensure that graduating students comprehensively demonstrate the required Programme Outcomes.<\/strong><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t
